答案 A Double-edged Sword of Modern Communication Technology Getting used to the convenience brought by technology, I cannot imagine the situation that cellphones, WeChat, Taobao and other new media of communication all disappeare from our life. It is undoubtedly that they have already taken over our life and affected our relationships in various ways. In my opinion, they have both positive and negative effects. On the one hand, technology has made our communication easier and more efficient. Before the Internet, we used to write letters or send telegram to our friends. After the Internet walks into our life, we send emails to each other and can quickly receive our friends’ reply. We don’t need to wait days or even months for their letters. Especially with the development of smart phones and 4G networks, we can chat with our friends face to face whenever we want to and wherever we are. And as long as there is a network, we can enjoy free video calls. For instance, I am pursuing my graduate education in a foreign country, and I can’t afford to fly back to reunite with my family. However, I can talk with my parents through WeChat face to face. Compared with receiving a letter in one or two months, they would be much more relieved if they can see me through WeChat regularly. On the other hand, new ways of communication also have negative influence on our personal relationships. More and more young people choose to make friends online, rather than going out with their friends in real life. It was reported that some people even decided to have a dinner together online, instead of going to a restaurant and enjoying the delicious food and a beautiful night together. It becomes harder to maintain a close relationship if we could not meet our friends in person. And what’s worse, when some young people get used to the virtual world, they refuse to go outside to embrace the real world. To conclude, the modern technology is a double-edged sword, which makes our life more convenient but also more isolated. We should make good use of this sword in our life—taking advantages of video calls to develop relationships and enhancing them by meeting each other in the real world.
